Containerized transportation trailers
Disclosed are various embodiments for a containerized shipping trailer and an automated module moving apparatus. A containerized shipping trailer may comprise a shipping container having a plurality of compartments configured to store a plurality of modules in an interior of the shipping container. An automated module moving apparatus may comprise a body configured to move horizontally along a rail from a first position to a second position to insert at least one projection into a portal of a module located in a compartment of the shipping container. The module may be removed and placed at a predefined location.
Integrated supply chain building
The application provides a multi-storey warehouse. The warehouse includes a warehouse building, a plurality of floor levels, an inclined ramp arrangement, one or more automated storage and retrieval systems, and a handling device. The floor levels and the automated storage and retrieval system are located within the warehouse building. The inclined ramp arrangement connects the floor levels with a ground level. The automated storage and retrieval system comprises two adjacent rows of multi-storey pallet racks which are separated by an aisle. A first end of the automated storage and retrieval system is provided adjacent to a lateral side of the floor levels. The handling device is located in the area of the aisle, wherein the handling device serves a plurality of pick/place locations which are provided at the floor levels as well as a plurality of storage locations which are provided in the multi-storey pallet racks.

Refuse vehicle with electric reach apparatus
A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, tractive elements, a lift apparatus, and a reach assembly. The tractive elements couple with the chassis and support the refuse vehicle. The lift apparatus includes a track and a grabber assembly. The track includes a straight portion and a curved portion. The grabber assembly releasably grasps a refuse container and ascends or descends the track to lift and empty refuse into a body of the refuse vehicle. The reach assembly includes an outer member, a first extendable member, and a second extendable member. The first extendable member is received within an inner volume of the outer member and translates relative to the outer member. The second extendable member is received within an inner volume of the first extendable member and translates relative to the first extendable member. The lift apparatus is fixedly coupled at an outer end of the second extendable member.
